There are two BIG things happening in the last week of the year. Luckily for you, both are straightforward.
The Film and Media Studies A-level Showcase
First, the Picturehouse trip is on Monday 9th July. Please make sure to turn up at 09:30. This will not be an issue if you set off early enough. Remember, central Cambridge can be absolutely crazy first thing in the morning, so give yourself plenty of time. If you haven't given in a slip yet, please bring it on the day (this is really important).
The showcase is a big deal. Aside from the grand prizes and trophies, it's a chance to celebrate the excellent A-level film and media students at Long Road, and the ridiculous amount of hard work you've put in. It's free, and the department have put a lot of time and effort in to it, so we're looking forward to seeing every one of you on Monday morning.
Aims and Intentions
The next piece of coursework is a short (500 word) essay and you've already completed a first draft of it. So why is it such a big deal? Because it's worth ten marks out of the total sixty assigned to coursework! This is MORE than a grade boundary! So there's a lot riding on something so small.
The aims and intentions essay must be completed and submitted before the end of term (Friday 13th July 2018). Please submit to the 'Aims and Intentions' folder in 'Submissions/Component three'. Please submit as a WORD DOCUMENT with your name in the title.
If you are in U block you will only have one lesson next week due to taster day and the half day on Friday, so it's especially important to attend your other lessons.
In fact, let's make this clear:
College is not over, we are still completing work in lessons, and you will lose marks if you fail to attend.
